Thought your report was nice. I am glad you wrote about such things as "red tape", I think governments are most of our problems. I hope if Switzerland joins the EU, it will help keep unification between regions. Though it might also open doors that should be closed....thanks for sharing. Also the photos are great! Someday I want to explore that region. Take care..have a nice new years. E-

Thanks for looking at my pages. I'm afraid that the Swiss will never adopt the EU, they are simply too much in love with their own country. Switzerland is surrounded by the EU on all sides (except for tiny Liechtenstein) but somehow they are proud to be an exclave. But it's their decision, anyway. But they'll join the Schengen treaty in January so that passport controls will be a thing of the past.
